"A sprawling cliffside retreat set above Honokahua Bay on expansive grounds with towering trees, offering 468 rooms, suites, and residences with private terraces and floor-to-ceiling windows in a sand-and-sea-inspired palette. Recent additions include rooms with extended lanais, private firepits and large dining tables; whale watching from the grounds is a highlight during season, and families can join coastal hikes, snorkeling, or e-bike tours run in partnership with Jean-Michel Cousteau’s Ambassadors of the Environment education program. The resort features a massive three-tiered pool complex and access to two historic 18-hole golf courses carved out of a former pineapple plantation." - Jill K. Robinson
